6Q: Duff Goldman of Ace of Cakes

Duff Goldman is the main man at Baltimore’s Charm City Cakes, the bakery featured on Food Network’s reality show Ace Of Cakes. Duff’s shop is staffed completely by Duff and his friends, all rock’n’roll arty types who simply make amazing cakes, minus the fake drama and wacky sound effects that come along with most reality shows. But this ain’t ur Grandma’s bakery, some of Charm City’s best work includes cake replicas of sports stadiums, zombie attacks, Big Lebowski severed toes and a life-size R2-D2 for George Lucas himself. He spends the rest of his time playing in the band …SoIHadTo… which he’s been doing since before the cake thing took off. They have a new album out: Adventure Stories (not based on fact?), available on Amazon or iTunes. You can also catch him live both cooking & rocking at the The Great American Food & Music Fest this Sunday June, 13th at the New Meadowlands Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey.
